――――――

As long as these three points are not involved, it is almost impossible for the current United States to send troops.

Moreover, the current US military strategy for the Middle East is to withdraw from the quagmire of war in the Middle East as much as possible, and to turn the focus on the Asia-Pacific region in the face of a global all-out war.

Russia, of course, is on Iran's side, and Iran does not like to see Saudi Arabia send troops to Yemen to fight the Houthis, who share the same beliefs as itself.

At the same time, Iran does not want to see Saudi Arabia flex its muscles in front of it and compete with itself for the status of the number one power in the Arab world.

After all, one of the purposes of Saudi Arabia's use of force against Yemen is to assert its military presence and influence against Iran.

Another reason why Saudi Arabia wants to do this is because of the Iranian nuclear issue, and the concessions made by the United States have made the Saudi side very angry.

The Iranian nuclear issue, ever since it embarked on the stage of peace talks, Saudi Arabia has been very dissatisfied.

Especially after the negotiations have entered a stage where results have begun to appear, the Saudi side is even more unable to sit still.

On the issue of nuclear talks between the United States and Iran, the two sides have already negotiated the details of Iran's peaceful use of nuclear energy.

As long as the outcome of the negotiations is reached, then Iran can have the right to the peaceful use of nuclear energy. It is possible to build civilian nuclear facilities freely.

At that time, the United States will also lift sanctions on Iran, once the sanctions are gone. Then Iran's economy will be fully recovered.

In fact, this is also the result that the EU has always needed, because the EU can no longer bear to be controlled by Russia on the issue of natural gas.

In fact, the EU has always wanted to trade natural gas with Iran, and Iran, which has the world's second largest gas reserves, will be able to free the EU from Russia's control over natural gas.

This is especially true in my hometown, where a gas pipeline through Pakistan was built several years ago. It has already reached the border with Iran, and Iran has built a pipeline to extend to the border with Pakistan.

The two pipelines are on the border, separated by dozens of centimeters. All you need is a connecting pipe, and Iranian gas can be delivered to your hometown immediately.

And because of the United Nations sanctions on Iran's nuclear issue, Iran's oil exports are not even one-third of what they normally are. Natural gas exports are even more restricted.

Once this restriction is turned on. Iran will soon have a lot of money, and even the United States will not be able to stop the needs of Europe and the Asia-Pacific region.

Iran's oil exports will soon triple and a large amount of natural gas will be supplied to Europe and the Asia-Pacific region.

In Saudi Arabia's view, the current Iran is already very difficult to deal with, and if an Iran with stable economic sources and support appears, then Saudi Arabia's status as an Arab power will soon be surpassed by Iran.

Iran only needs to calm down for a year or two. It will become a very rich country, and when the time comes, it will be even if it really makes nuclear weapons. There is no need to worry about external sanctions at all.

This is the most unbearable thing for Saudi Arabia, and based on this, the characteristics of Saudi Arabia against Iran are very obvious.

What makes Saudi Arabia most dissatisfied is that the United States is obviously loosening its shackles on Iran, otherwise, the United States can completely resist the pressure within the EU and NATO and continue to impose sanctions on Iran.

However, the United States obviously wants to maintain a balance of political forces in the Middle East, and the Americans really have no intention of making Saudi Arabia really big in the Middle East.

The emergence of a Middle East power structure in which Saudi Arabia and Iran are counterbalanced is what the United States wants to see.

As for the European Union, it naturally does not want Yemen ****, because the Gulf of Aden is the lifeline of European countries, and 60% of Europe's economy comes from the Gulf of Aden, the lifeline artery.

Yemen ****, for Europe, is simply harmless, and what Europe wants to see most is that Yemen can negotiate peacefully.

There is no doubt that the key place of the Maritime Silk Road is the Gulf of Aden, and like the European Union, my hometown also hopes that Yemen will be peaceful and quiet, and not mess with so many moths coming out.

In the past, when my hometown went to Yemen to evacuate the expatriate, the direct use of warships was not only to quickly evacuate the expatriates, but also to tell the people in the Arabian Peninsula that I was also armed in this place.

President Roosevelt of the United States gave people the greatest impression of a turnip and a stick, and his famous saying was: Speak kindly, but have a big stick in your hand.

Now my hometown is like this, it's like two people fighting, you persuade on the side, but the two people who are fighting look at you and find that you are not a threat at all, and there is nothing on your body, so it is naturally impossible to listen to your persuasion.

But if you have a gun in your hand, tell both of them to stop fighting, and see which of them dares to do it.

This is also an obvious change in the foreign policy of his hometown, and he has begun to have a little taste of holding a pistol and talking well, which is worth learning from Cai Ruichen.

And in this kind of situation that the whole world does not support, Saudi Arabia still gathered a group of brothers, the coalition of ten countries, which sounds very good, but except for Saudi Arabia's own troops, all of them came to fight soy sauce.

After all, countries like Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates are all rich lords, but to let them use force is simply a super joke.

It's more just to sit on the cold bench, which can be regarded as a little support for the big brother of Saudi Arabia, after all, they have no choice, and the monarchy countries in the Middle East are the only ones left, so they can only huddle together to keep warm.

If you leave the big brother of Saudi Arabia, it will be difficult to keep your complete status.

As a result, Saudi Arabia also miscalculated, originally thinking that in addition to the Houthi rebels in Yemen, half of the people would meet the Saudi royal army, but the result was the opposite.

At first, these Yemenis welcomed the Saudi attack on the Houthis, but as the Saudi airstrikes began, the Saudi Air Force, which had no experience in war, was more likely to cause civilian casualties, and killed Yemenis.

At this time, if someone stands up and shouts in support of Saudi Arabia's dispatch of troops to Yemen, it is estimated that this person will be immediately beaten to death by other Yemenis.

This is unexpected, all wars have not been smooth, Gagen Salman's son Mohammed is still a super layman who has not been a soldier for a day, commanding hundreds of thousands of troops to fight, it is a joke. (To be continued.) )
